I was at Chicago-area Founder's Day Lunch today and they announced that Northwestern Univ. got 35 girls (quota + 1) during Formal recruitment this Spring. Northern IL Univ. had 4 NMs join through COB this Spring.
It was lovely today being with the Collegians from Northwestern, Northern IL, U of Chicago, and our second-to-newest chapter at DePaul. All very classy ladies who seemed to be showing their DG pride on campus winning all sorts of awards and raising great money for Service for Sight and other events on their respective campuses. Northern IL won Chapter of the Year by their Panhellenic and also has the highest GPA on campus!
While I felt a little 'old' for the first time (this being my first Founder's Day in quite a while) it was wonderful being there and being mentioned for my 10 years (!!!) as a member of Delta Gamma. Our local Alum chapter President was also a member of my new member class, so it was great to share it with a chapter sister even though both of us went to school out of the state of Illinois.
